2020 Rusty Award

3/23/2021

​AND THE 2020 RUSTY AWARD GOES TO........

2020 Rusty Awards
    2020 seems to be a better year for design, as our bottom end is a bit shorter than last year.  With a 2% decrease in the worst designed vehicles amount, it seems that companies are finally catching on.   And to top if off, this years Rusty winner only won one award this year.   Seems they copycats are getting better as our top spot only goes to the worst design, not a copycat of the worst design.

​    This year though marks a dark day for Suzuki, as they have two vehicles on out worst list.  But worst yet is that the 2020 Suzuki WagonR has been given our "Rusty Award" for bad designs.  Yes Suzuki may have finally hit rock bottom as both of their vehicles on this list are shared products.  Guess they should rethink who they work with on future products. 

Rated: 2020 Jeep Gladiator


    As usual our runner up for wort designed comes from a company who has more Rusty awards than any one.  Honda takes the title of runner up for the all new Jazz/Fit model.  Both the I.C.E. and E.V. models hit the low of the low when it came to working together, but why fit something that is already broke.  The worst part about it, is that the cross-trek version is also the list.  Guess you can't fix boring, even when it goes off road.
​

Rated: 2020 Milan Red


​    Our 2nd runner up had to go van, as it seems there is always a van on this list.  This year there are two, but only the 2020 Nissan NV250 was more worthy of this title.  Good news for Volkswagen, but bad news for Nissan.   Guess Nissan should have taken our advice and worked with someone a bit better for their van design as the all new NV250 is a horrible version of the Renault Kangoo.  But really is the Kangoo any better.
​

RAted: 2020 Toyota Supra


    The rest of our list is littered with the standard hatchbacks, vans and ev's.  But it seems that Mitsubishi wanted to get in on the action with their Xpander Cross.  The base Xpander is a pretty volatile vehicle to begin with, but make it cross-trek and you have the Rusty award winner.

    It was nice to see a drop in the amount of Rusty Awards this year, but it's still not enough in our books as would prefer if the bottom dropped out at 45%, not the usual 35%.  But I guess we will just have to wait and see what 2021 brings us as we hope our bottom end list will shrink even more.

    About

        AutoLooks "RATED" is where we rate and review vehicles from around the world from every segment of the automotive industry.  Our 1,215 point system is based on Four (4) key areas of automotive design.
        AutoLooks rates the Front End, Rear End, Side and Overall Appeal of each and every new vehicle from around the world.
        If they rate above 75%, they receive our
    A+ AWARD for design excellence. 
          If our rating system turns up a score below 45%, then that model will receive our RUSTY AWARD of design failure. 
        And don't think of borrowing to many design features from another company, or you will wind up taking home our COPYCAT AWARD.  This award outlines which model they are borrowing from and how close they are to the original
        At the end of each year, AutoLooks puts together all of the their information into one easy to read article which outlines the best, worst, lost and new products from each year.
        So join us on our journey of automotive criticism and take a look on our RATED pages to see how well each company, segment and model fair against their rivals.
